Well - I haven't necessarily done the best tests. I tried the search example, which was pretty slow. Threaded_search was better, and maybe implemented in a GUI with results being displayed progressively would be okay. I did try the Windows client, but only under Virtual PC under Mac OS X - which tends to be slow for everything :-).
I will try some kind of progressive display to minimize any "perceived slowness" - that is, whenever I get to searching. Right now I'm still just trying to figure out how to get data from VerseKey to populate my interface. Long ways to go... Of course if the speed can be improved - that couldn't be a bad thing. It will be nice to swap out the 1.5.3 library with a newer one and suddenly everything is faster/better :-). - n8 >Well, I'm excited now because I think I have found something that I could >work on.
